Yes it will be a DD once I'm done. I will get a trailer though. I plan on getting a little more bold now so better have a way home if the cojones are bigger than the brain...

More LCA/UCA pics



Plenty of room in there for 7" of up travel.

Frame tie in plates on both sides. By the time this project is done there will be somewhere around 30 ft of 3"x 1/4" plate on this frame, all in 9" and 12" fish plates.


More to come...

This reservoir is like an orphan; it's got no home. I think that is where it's going to be eventually though.
